How to DIY and Upgrade your Magnet glass cleaner under $5.00

Due to algae growth, I used to spend a lot of my time cleaning my glass weekly. Lazy people like me tend to use magnet cleaner without having my hand touches the water, however, as time goes by I notice that the stubborn algae are more than what my existing magnet cleaner is able to handle.

Below is a simple yet very effective method to upgrade our existing magnet glass cleaner with less than 5 bucks!

Materials needed;

3m sponge

3M Scotch Brite All purposes cleaning net Sponge pad

This could be found at your nearest supermarket under the disk washing section which should cost less than 5 bucks. There are other similar brands which cost lesser but personally, i only trusted on 3M products and quality.
